Thats a one off prototype, unfortunately I don't think there will be any more made, they're a pain to mold apparently and are quite difficult to remove from the mold once set, plus I had to reinforce it with wire to stop it from collapsing under boost. It also comes down to cost, I think there is a market for them but for the price they would be sold at i don't think many people would buy them. shame really as it provides a solution to the rubbish OEM intake. 2011 Defender DCPU 2.2 - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic30623.html

Wow, it was collapsing pre turbo ?? Was the hose really thin ?? Shame it would be perfect solution to problem !! Surely if the mould has been made it just needs replicating ??

Yup pre turbo, anything past 2k revs and it would suck shut, it's 3 ply silicone, obviously not strong enough for the mighty TDCI engine, could be the remap sucking more too though. 2011 Defender DCPU 2.2 - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic30623.html
